Hi,
I have the same laptop, with exact same configuration except CPU is AMD Sempron
3500+ with 1gb ram.

In my case, the lockups occur even with 2.6.22, so (at least for me) it doesn't
seem like a regression on 2.6.25.

I've just found a spanish thread where a user comments he has run (on this
laptop) Ubuntu 7.04 without problems, but that on 7.10 he had to set acpi=off
boot option.
http://www.psicofxp.com/forums/gnu-linux.50/737610-instalar-fedora-en-notebook-msi-drivers.html

So I'm right now installing kernel 2.6.20 , (the Feisty-stock one) to test, and
will report here the results.

I'm really interested in getting to the root of this issue, since I'm pretty
happy with kernel performance/compatibility on this laptop... except for the
acpi problem.

I'm confirming these informations. Lock-ups have ocurred anywhere from an hour
after booting, up to a couple of days uptime. Even with X server not running.
acpi=off solves the problem. Tried disabling the powernow_k8 module (cpu
scaling) without positive results.

Still haven't tried compiling the processor driver as built-in, i understand
you refer to this module: kernel/drivers/acpi/processor.ko

Thanks a lot both of you!
